This is a simplified version as I’m standing on a train heading back home 😂 interview went well. Make sure you photocopy original divorce decree documents, I brought the originals and they seems mad at me ☹️ but they were honestly fine, the person doing the interview was lovely and actually had a sense of humour.
Questions asked:
How did you meet?
How was the wedding?
Have you met her family?
How many times and what was your longest stay in the US?
Do you plan on visiting Israel or Palestine?
This is very mentally challenging and still doesn’t feel real but don’t give up no matter how hard it gets.
